If I tackled you just before you unknowingly drank poison, wouldn’t you hail me as your hero? Well, consider this your face plant. You probably have been consuming this toxin on a daily basis. Worse, you may even be serving this modern day hemlock to your sweet innocent children. Does Crystal Light ring a bell? Sugar free popsicles? Diet Pepsi addiction got you stuck in the drive thru?
Sir! Put. Your Weapon. Down.
Nutra Sweet. Equal. Aspartame. Sweet Poison. This chemical, yes chemical, is toxic. Not a little toxic. A lot toxic. There are account after account of reports to the FDA heralding the dangers and side effects of aspartame. But to no avail. This chemical breaks down in the body as methanol and formaldehyde. Those guys don’t sound very friendly. A few of the 92 different reported symptoms listed include: Headaches/migraines, dizziness, nausea, extreme depression, irritability, insomnia, anxiety attacks, vertigo, memory loss, and joint pain. Chronic illnesses can be triggered or worsened by ingesting of aspartame: Brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, lymphoma, birth defects, fibromyalgia, and diabetes. Gulf War Syndrome.
What is scary is that unlike many things we put into our body, aspartame’s by products go straight to the brain. It actually crosses the “brain / blood barrier” as it is called. Several of the experts who now speak out against aspartame took part in the research and development of this chemical. One of the world’s foremost authorities informed the development company, Searle, in 1971 that aspartic acid (a by-product) caused holes in the brains of mice. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
So? You say. I am not scared of that. Ok, how about this? Artificial sweeteners can make your body fat. Yes, fat. By tricking the body into thinking sugar is coming, insulin is produced awaiting its arrival. This unnecessary spike in blood sugar is no bueno for your system. That excess sugar is then stored as fat. But who cares that you are fat if you’ve got cancer.
Your body begs for diamonds on its insides. Not corrosive poison.
Start today. Be a Hero! Throw that sh*t out. Real sugar is best. Begin with detoxifying your body of all residual chemical toxins from aspartame’s chemical make up and their toxic by-products, and see if any adverse health symptoms remain. At the very least, your brain will be clearer and your body more brilliant.
You can thank me later.
